What is the cause of leucorrhea in the form of lumps?

At a time when infertility is prevalent, gynecological diseases are becoming more and more prevalent. When people learn about gynecological knowledge, they will inevitably understand that leucorrhea is a signal of gynecological disease. If abnormal conditions occur, it means that they may have gynecological diseases. However, there are many cases of abnormal leucorrhea, which are always difficult to distinguish. Leucorrhea in the form of lumps is a manifestation of abnormal leucorrhea. So, what is the reason for leucorrhea in the form of lumps?

A normal woman's vagina has a small amount of milky white or colorless, transparent, odorless secretion oozing out, which is called leucorrhea. It is a mixture of vaginal mucosal exudates, cervical glands and endometrial secretions. The amount of leucorrhea is related to the amount of estrogen secretion. Generally speaking, the more estrogen is secreted, the greater the amount of leucorrhea, and it changes cyclically.

Women may have more vaginal discharge during ovulation, before and after menstruation, and during pregnancy, but the nature of the discharge does not change significantly, which is normal. If there is too much vaginal discharge or its characteristics are abnormal, the underwear is often soaked and even a menstrual belt is needed. This situation is called leucorrhea. Abnormal leucorrhea is often caused by different diseases. Therefore, it is very important for female friends to pay attention to whether there are any abnormalities in leucorrhea.

There are many causes of leucorrhea, the most common of which are infections by various bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. Due to different infection sites and pathogens, the abnormal conditions manifested by leucorrhea may also be abnormal. Purulent leucorrhea is yellow, sticky and has an odor, and is mostly caused by gynecological inflammation. Acute or chronic inflammation in any part of the genitals can cause congestion, edema, exudation or hypersecretion of local tissues, resulting in excessive vaginal discharge. For example, mucopurulent leucorrhea is mostly caused by cervicitis; white lumpy leucorrhea like tofu dregs is mostly seen in candidal vaginitis; yellow foamy leucorrhea like soapy water, with a sour and smelly smell, is mostly caused by vaginal Trichomonas. Bloody leucorrhea is bloody or contains blood streaks. It may be caused by acute or chronic cervicitis, cervical cancer, malignant tumors and other diseases.

The main symptoms of candidal vaginitis are excessive vaginal discharge in a tofu-like state, accompanied by vulvar or vaginal itching. If not treated thoroughly, it can easily recur before and after menstruation. The treatment of candidal vaginitis mainly uses local medication, external wash medication and oral medication. The husband should receive treatment at the same time, otherwise it is easy to relapse. The treatment can be external skin cleansing, vaginal insertion of nystatin suppositories, and oral fluconazole. After the symptoms have completely disappeared, go to the hospital for three negative reexaminations before it can be considered completely cured.

For women, leucorrhea in clumpy form is not only a visual shock but also a psychological blow. In fact, there are many treatments for gynecological diseases indicated by leucorrhea in clumps, and the treatment effects are good. Therefore, when leucorrhea appears in lumps, as long as you seek medical attention in time, you can minimize the harm caused by the disease.
